Since we got here things have been pretty relaxing. We have been finding places for all of the stuff that the crammed in my car that came from Idaho. Yesterday we took a break from organizing and the girls and I explored out new surroundings. We found their new school and picked up their registration packets. The office staff seem incredibly charming and very excited to meet the girls. Jenny said she knows that she is going to love the school because there is a big mural painted on the wall.
After checking out their school we went to a health fair/farmers market at the Marine Recruit Depot. It was neat to see the place that Geoff went to boot camp. Their got all excited when I told them that is where Geoff went to Boot camp. Sammy said, "Oh Geoff is so lucky that he got to go to camp. How fun!" I told that to Geoff and he laughed. "Fun" is not the word he would use to describe his time there.
The health fair was a lot of fun. Great info on local activities for the kids and what places that we get into with discounts because we are a military family. Sammy got super excited because this local karate class is offering cheap introductory lessons. I don't know why but I am a little nervous about Sammy learning karate. I am sure I will get a call from school telling me she beat up some boy or something with her new moves she has learned. But, at the same time it's all about discipline and exercise is good, so against my better judgment I am going to let her give it a try.
Today I am back to the work of getting my house in order. Not that exciting. I am so looking forward to Saturday. One Geoff will be off so we will get all weekend to finally get to enjoy him. Also I will go for my first San Diego run! My reading has told me you should rest, totally rest for one week after doing a marathon to give your body time to heal. So, except for some roller bladeing around the neighborhood, I have done just that. I miss running so much! I am looking forward to heading out on Saturday, pounding the pavement again! But for now, just rest.
OH my goodness, it sounds like you are having so much fun! I bet Sammy is going to be the best little karate person ever. You will never have to worry about the boys getting too close, or else she will give them a piece of her mind. I was just teasing about your bronco blue toes. You have beautiful toes ha ha that sounds so funny! Have fun girl! I love reading your blog!
